The People's Democratic Republic of Yeligula is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by Tan with an even hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, ban on automobiles, and state-planned economy. The compassionate population of 13.401 billion Yeligulans are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government prioritizes Education, with Healthcare, Environment, and Social Policy also on the agenda, while Defense and Spirituality are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Yanzhou. The average income tax rate is 87.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Yeligulan economy, worth a remarkable 1,656 trillion Renminbis a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is extremely specialized, is mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 123,606 Renminbis, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Handling people's data is proving an immersive experience, cyber-crime and tin-foil hat sales are both increasing at record rates, the nation's universities are often mistaken for foreign embassies, and government officials sit helplessly as they are labelled 'Pompous Womples' by celebrities. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Yeligula's national animal is the Sea Slug, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is State Secularism.

Yeligula is ranked 284,723rd in the world and 1,328th in The Communist Bloc for Most Patriotic, with 0.36 flags saluted per person per day.
